Although everyone had already stayed out of each other’s way since the Mu Family took over the food supply, it was a pity that a life could be lost just like that. Wang Ye couldn’t help but feel some regret, "I can only fish, not swim. Since he was just with you, he must have been washed away. Let’s go, I’ll help you inside."
Huo Miao, weakly leaning on Wang Ye, had her mind full of thoughts about what she should do if Mu Mingxuan was dead.
If Mu Mingxuan died, no one on the desolate island would protect her.
After leaving the desolate island, how would she explain to the Mu Family?
Mu Mingxuan had no siblings; he was an only child. If Auntie Mu and Uncle Mu found out, they would definitely kill her!
Huo Miao, terrified, started sobbing out loud.
Wang Ye thought she was upset over Mu Mingxuan’s death and comforted her while helping her.
The two kept their heads down, completely ignoring Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou, who were not far away.
Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou had just come out of the forest, planning to return to the loft. Seeing Huo Miao drenched, Jiang Ning frowned deeply. Had she just heard Wang Ye say that Mu Mingxuan was swept away?
Jiang Ning turned her head to ask Qi Xingzhou beside her, "Mu Mingxuan was swept away by the water?"
[It’s the first time I’ve seen Jiang Ning also confused.]
[Hmm... Nobody could have expected this, it’s just too unexpected.]
"Let’s go have a look," Jiang Ning tugged at Qi Xingzhou’s sleeve and quickly headed towards the river.
This damn river—if Mu Mingxuan died in it, how would they ever use the water from this river again! And the fish in the river, how could they eat them!
If he had to die, he should’ve died somewhere else!
Jiang Ning, furious, stormed off.
[From now on! If anyone dares speak ill of Jiang Ning again, I’ll be the first to cleave them!]
[Right! Even after Huo Miao got ashore, she didn’t have the slightest intention of saving Mu Mingxuan, just crying!]
[Regardless of whether or not Jiang Ning can find Mu Mingxuan later, at least she didn’t hesitate to put the rescue into action as soon as she knew about this, which is countless times better than Huo Miao!]
While Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou were searching for Mu Mingxuan by the river, over here, Wang Ye had already taken Huo Miao back to the loft.
Seeing that Wang Ye actually made contact with Huo Miao, and that she was all wet, Jian Tiantian couldn’t help but ask more. She then learned about Mu Mingxuan being washed away by the water.
The other guests were all stunned, especially Yuan Wei and others in the kitchen cooking crabs and small fish. After hearing the news, they scoffed with irony, "Lin Qi had long told you not to pick snails there, you wouldn’t listen, and now look what happened, none of us can swim."
In any case, asking them to fish out a body from the river was absolutely impossible.
Lin Qi was also very unhappy, frowning, "There’s been a death in the river, can we even go there to pick snails anymore?"
Upon hearing this, disgruntled glances were thrown towards Huo Miao, as if they expected her to give an explanation.
Huo Miao sobbed miserably. Mu Mingxuan had just died, and these people couldn’t wait to bully her!
"How was I supposed to know this would happen! It wasn’t me who wanted to pick the snails! Brother Mingxuan took me to pick them!"
"I’m more upset than anyone that he fell in, I even wish it was me who fell! But what could I do? I’m just a girl, I’m too weak, I couldn’t hold on to him!"
Huo Miao’s voice was hoarse, her cries of injustice echoing through the entire loft.
[The familiar rhetoric has returned...]
[Truly worthy of being Huo Miao, who can differentiate her from an Oscar-winning actress?]
[The master of passing the buck, who else but her]
[Stop the chatter, go check out Jiang Ning’s live broadcast!]
After returning to her room, Huo Miao was in utter turmoil.
She went to the balcony and noticed that her room faced the river outside.
Huo Miao didn’t want to look, but just as she was about to turn away, something caught her eye in the corner of her vision. She suddenly noticed downstream, Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou were there.
The two were struggling in the water, swimming towards the shore, and it seemed like they were pulling something... An unbelievable thought popped into Huo Miao’s mind.
Her eyes widened in anxiety.
[Jiang Ning is really amazing! She actually found Mu Mingxuan!]
[Not only did she find him, but the moment she saw him, she didn’t hesitate to jump in. I truly admire her, I always feel that she has a kind of tenacity and will in her actions that I lack.]
[Qi Xingzhou also looks so cool, the moment Jiang Ning jumped, he didn’t think twice before following her, even though Jiang Ning had told him specifically to wait on the shore.]
[Isn’t this the only time in the show he hasn’t listened to Jiang Ning?]
[No, the second time. He also helped Jiang Ning in a fight this morning—hee hee, he just couldn’t stand idly by and watch Jiang Ning in danger.]
[The program group hasn’t announced the news of Mu Mingxuan’s departure, so, is Mu Mingxuan still alive?]
